If you missed Heavy Jones Trio in Wellington last night you should be annoyed that you missed a great gig. However you will be pleased to know that they are 'highly recommended' next time they are in Wellington.

The Heavy Jones Trio produced a tight sound and achieved the best mix of the evening. With strong arrangements the four piece have capatlized on lead vocal with two support vocals, two guitars, bass and drums to effectively achieve music with a great deal of colour and interest. Wellington was the final show of the 'Nobody Town' album tour. I am looking forward to seeing their most recently completed music video on television soon.

Jeremy Taylor and The Wasted Years performed tracks from Jeremys solo album 'Black Balloons'. The Wasted Years consisted of an array of known Wellington musicians and presented a driving sound with good definition. Problems at the start of their performance could have been minimised with a sound check however the audience were content to just have another drink and chat. 'Black Balloons' is available online and in stores.

Autumn Stone opened the show to an enthusiastic crowd of supporters. Not having played in Wellington for several months no-one knew what kind of turnout to expect. The audience were attentive and appreciative with very little chatter as the audience were drawn in to Autumn Stones unique blend of rock and visuals. The band played its most requested tracks and were very pleased with the accolades at the conclusion of their performance.

Thanks very much to Le Gaz for doing the sound and I hope to see The Heavy Jones Trio again in the near future.

Regards,

Tane McLeay
